successful people do what unsuccessful people don't want to do"
It's easy to make mistakes when you are new at something, especially when it could be considered big scale. At BlendZ, after three months of dedication, we've identified certain issues that for the past two weeks have been breaking apart our business. As a company, we've been slowly detaching BlendZ off the ground, but there hasn't been a sense of initiative as to breaking our a** off to speed up that detachment 1000 times faster. The spark that we started the business with has been diminishing, and there was no better way to bring it up again than by pushing ourselves as a team to take the business to another level. |
It took about 40 minutes to uptake responsibility and brainstorm the ideal solution to the problem that we as a company were facing -- real life issues. But none of these facts are important, except for the IMPRESSIVE attitude that we entailed throughout the conversation. The desire to learn was over-powering our growth mindset, leading the entire solution to one conclusion: we wanted more work, more homework, and a more demanding and challenging workspace in BlendZ. |
There comes a time in life where things get complicated, and it takes responsibility and initiative to take those breakdowns as part of learning, using them as intrinsic motivators to switch the batteries on and keep on growing as a person and as a company.
Through BlendZ, we've been constantly iterating to polish the perfect system not only for a successful business as a result, but for a journey of validated learnings that will most certainly be useful for the rest of our lives; challenges that will give us as much knowledge as possible, because our aim as an academy and as a business is to take this opportunity as a one in a life time learning explosion. | |
